【题目】As an expert on education, I finished a Junior Achievement course at a local middle school last week. I received some meaningful answers when I asked teens what they would want to tell their parents about money.

Max said,’Dear Mom, I need to give you some advice on money. I need more allowance (零用钱)!” I have to say many teenagers have the same idea as him. As an expert, I advise a little money for teens and more if they help with the housework. Now that your children are in middle school, it’s time to think about paying them to do something. My daughter missed a lot of school when she was a junior so I promised to buy her a notebook computer if she didn’t miss any school as a senior she got the computer finally. What worked for my other daughter was a clothing allowance for her joining in the housework. She would receive a set amount every two months; it taught her a valuable lesson: when the clothing money ran out, she couldn’t buy more clothes until she got enough money through doing the housework. “I need more allowance,” should be the start, not the end, of a dialogue.

Grace wanted to tell Mom, “Only buy what we need.” Spending wisely and saving money was a good theme from all the students. The idea of thinking carefully about spending is just what I taught them at class, but this is not the subject of this Junior Achievement course. It shows me that these teenagers look at their parents’ spending habits, but they don’t tell their parents their opinions about them. Therefore, Moms and Dads, pay attention and remember: your children watch everything you do when it comes to money do it right, point them in the right direction.

Nikola’s advice is valuable to all parents “Mom and Dad, I think I should be more involved in money and financial (金融) things so I know how to do everything without a struggle when I get older.” This child has got it right. Her answer shows the fact that parents are responsible (负责的) for the financial training of their children. It is one of our most important parental goals.

【1】What does the author advise parents to do when their children want more allowance ?

A. Stop giving them allowance at once.

B. Buy them something they are in need of.

C. Give them more allowance if they help do the housework

D. Encourage them to earn more allowance by doing part time jobs.

【2】Why does the author mention his daughters in Paragraph 2?

A. To show he does better than others in teaching his children.

B. To tell readers how to encourage children to study hard.

C. To show paying children to do things really works.

D. To tell readers he has children who often make trouble.

【3】 In Paragraph 3 the author suggests that parents should ________.

A. set good examples to their children in spending and saving money

B. set up a good relationship with their children

C. ask their children for advice on spending money

D. attend his Junior Achievement course

【4】We can learn from the passage that Nikola _______.

A. expected her parents to think about her future

B. expected to learn how to manage money

C. worried about her ability to make a living

D. had a better understanding of the author’s course

【题目】As motorways become more and more blocked up with traffic, a new generation on flying cars will be needed to ferry people along skyways. That is the conclusion of engineers from the US space agency and aeronautical firms, who envision future commuters traveling by “skycar”.

These could look much like the concept skycar shown in the picture, designed by Boeing research and development. However, such vehicles could be some 25 years from appearing on the market. Efforts to build flying vehicles in the past have not been very successful. Such vehicles would not only be expensive and require the skills of a trained pilot to fly, but there are significant engineering challenges involved in developing them. “When you try to combine them you get the worst of both worlds: a very heavy, slow, expensive vehicle that’s hard to use,” said Mark Moore, head of the personal air vehicle(PAV) division of the vehicle systems program at Nasa’s Langley Research Center in Hampton, US. But Boeing is also considering how to police the airways and prevent total pandemonium(吵杂狂乱的喧闹)-if thousands of flying cars enter the skies.

“The neat, gee-whiz part is thinking about what the vehicle itself would look like,” said Dick Paul, a vice president with Phantom Works, Boeing’s research and development arm. “But we’re trying to think through all the consequences of what it would take to deploy(散开) a fleet of these.”

Past proposals to solve this problem have included artificial intelligence systems to prevent collisions between air traffic. Nasa is working on flying vehicles with the initial goal of transforming small plane travel. Small planes are generally costly, loud, and require months of training and lots of money to operate, making flying to work impractical for most people. But within five years, Nasa researchers hope to develop technology for a small plane that can fly out of regional airports, costs less than $100,000(55,725), is as quiet as a motorcycle and as simple to operate as a car.

Although it would not have any road-driving capabilities, it would bring this form of travel within the grasp of a wider section of people. The new technology would automate many of the pilot’s functions. This Small Aircraft Transportation System(Sats) would divert pressure away from the “hub-and-spoke(中心辐射型)” model of air travel. Hub-and-spoke refers to the typically US model of passengers being processed through large “hub” airports and then on to secondary flights to “spoke” airports near their final destinations.

【1】The best title for this text would be_______ .

A. Developing Skycars

B. The Traffic Jams in the Sky

C. How to Guide Flying Cars in the Sky

D. What Flying Cars Will Look Like

【2】The underlined word “envision” in Paragraph 1 most probably means “.

A.imagine B. expect C. think D. announce

【3】When engineers develop the skycars, they have to deal with the following difficulties except____ .

A. how to fly out of regional airports

B. how to prevent the disorder of the airways

C. how to reduce expenses and the vehicle’s weight

D. how to fly the skycars to enter skies

【4】Now Nasa researchers’ aim is to .

A. make big flying cars

B. work out the plan---how to transform small plane travel

C. develop a new kind of small plane different from the traditional one

D. build a new kind of small plane with road-driving abilities
